Pyschics Reading

actually, I disagree with that. I believe that charging for divination or magical services is not only acceptable, but also an important transaction to connect the recipient with the energy that is being used on their behalf. charging can be monetary or in barter for goods or services. charging is acceptable. OVERCHARGING is not. the fact is, we go through life paying other people for their skills. the skills that they have cultivated and we have not. that they have worked hard to become skilled at, and we have not. these skilled people, in whatever area their skills lie, deserve to receive something for that skill, and for the expenditure of energy that they make on your behalf. people wouldn't ever expect a skilled electrician to work for free, or say it was unethical for them to expect payment. and similarly, those that have skills in the spiritual realm are STILL skilled craftsmen so if somebody asks for payment for services rendered, this is not a sign they are a phony. if they charge an unfair amount (by which I don't mean if they're expecting to get more than just cover the cost of materials, these people need to make a living too) but rather those that charge more than can be considered a fair amount (I would say that more than £40 an hour, for most types of spiritual work, is too much. say, £20 for a half hour reading is fine. I've heard of people charging far more than that, and it's not fair to take advantage of people by thinking you can just charge whatever you want. I've done magical services for people for things as diverse as cash, help in the garden, and being given a small cut of someones vegetable crops over their harvesting season. and eggs. I consider that there needs to be some form of transaction between myself and the recipient, one that is fair for the amount of energy I expend for them. because the energy I use is MY transaction with the universe. and then the payment makes that transaction between them and the universe. it's only a more recent idea that people with magical or spiritual skills shouldn't receive anything for that hard earned skill. after all, the village wisewoman would never have worked for nothing. she had to make a living.
